I had vasculitis (ulcers, etc), and now my legs are all marked, alot of hyperpigmentation scars. I dont feel comfortable using dresses or shorts because of my legs. Do you guys know any product that can lighten those marks?

I have the same corina, being a guy it hasn't bothered me to much, my answer is that I don't know, maybe someone will get back to you with an answer your looking for, will be looking to see,
Hi Carina, sorry I don't know of any products that would help but I used to have lots of hemosiderin staining on my legs after repeated vasculitic rashes and in time they did fade away and there is no trace now.

I heard bio oil is good for scars but you’ll probably have to be consistent with it and will take time maybe months
My OH had a great deal on his lower legs and used bio oil . After 3 years they are now very faint and hardly noticeable.
Boots have a range of scar treatments.
